Wellness Corner: West Michigan Walking Challenge

May 6, 2019 by Brittany Denton, Applied Resources

We are stepping up to the challenge of the Michigan Workplace Walking Challenge. Applied Imaging has improved from week one to week two, and the Wellness Committee is excited to see where the last four weeks take us.

Mark Wallis, one of our top performing Sales Representatives, has held the rank of the top stepper at Applied Imaging for the first two weeks with over 40 employees participating. There are over 100 companies from across the state of Michigan participating which makes this anyone’s game.

As we continue to shoot for 10,000 steps per day, let’s mention the benefits of walking 10,000 steps per day, some are increased heart strength, lose more body fat, stabilize blood sugar, improve brain function, and lower blood pressure according to the Mayo Clinic. Although your goal will depend on your starting point are so many benefits to walking more.

Stay tuned for an exciting video showcasing our excitement for the West Michigan Walking Challenge – coming soon to our social media platforms!
